This example hooks all `trigger_teleport`. <note>ACTIVATOR / CALLER / TRIGGER_PLAYER globals are only available during execution, they are unset directly afterwards.</note> </description> <code> local function SetupMapLua() local MapLua = ents.Create( "lua_run" ) MapLua:SetName( "triggerhook" ) MapLua:Spawn() for _, v in ipairs( ents.FindByClass( "trigger_teleport" ) ) do v:Fire( "AddOutput", "OnStartTouch triggerhook:RunPassedCode:hook.Run( 'OnTeleport' ):0:-1" ) end end hook.Add( "InitPostEntity", "SetupMapLua", SetupMapLua ) hook.Add( "PostCleanupMap", "SetupMapLua", SetupMapLua ) hook.Add( "OnTeleport", "TestTeleportHook", function() local activator, caller = ACTIVATOR, CALLER print( activator, caller ) end ) </code> <output> When player touches trigger_teleport this will be printed in the console: ``` Player [1][Player1] Entity [3][trigger_teleport] ``` </output> </example>
